Butchart Gardens

Introduction

Visiting Victoria without exploring the Butchart Gardens (Butchart Gardens) would be like finding a treasure trove and leaving empty-handed. This world-renowned private garden, which attracts millions of visitors from around the globe, boasts blooming flowers in every season and stunning garden landscapes that are truly breathtaking — a true paradise on earth.

The Butchart Gardens were established in 1904. The site was originally a limestone quarry operated by cement merchant Robert Pim Butchart. After his retirement, his wife transformed the area into a garden, planting flowers and plants collected from around the world. Thanks to the continuous efforts of their children and grandchildren, the garden now features various scenic areas including the Sunken Garden, Rose Garden, Japanese Garden, and Italian Garden. Its exceptional horticultural artistry captivates all who visit, drawing over a million tourists from around the world each year. Transportation
